No under soil heating which was taken out many seasons ago.

Either way they have the fancy grow lights, so pitch won't be a problem

Can’t see why the game wouldn’t be on. The uk seems to come to a halt with a dusting of snow.

I’ve been on M62/M1 and some roads in Cas and Wakefield today and absolutely no issue. In fact it was faster than a usual weekday morning trip.

So long as you set off with extra time and drive to the conditions there’s really no issue.

The game is on anyway according to Rhinos. Good news.

I stand corrected they do appear to have under soil heating which I thought had been removed due to it now being summer rugby.

They put a new system back in when they relaid the pitch a few years ago.

Undersoil heating been on for 2 days and private contractors hired to clear the surrounding areas of the ground of snow that was 75 mm deep apparently.
Not sure what that is in proper money.

Just short of 3".

I'm up on the edge of the Dales and the snow is melting, and also drying up, rapidly.

Cheers.
150 mm sounds so much better than 6 inches!
